    Abstract: The recent ‘News Media Bargaining Code’ has raised controversy as Australia attempts to force digital platforms to pay news publishers for their links and snippets. To understand the impacts of the bargaining code on both the sustainability and quality of journalism, we develop a model where there are two types of news content available to consumers : full news from the news publisher and snippets on the platform. We show that the bargaining code strictly improves the news publisher’s welfare but increases their joint investment incentives if and only if the relative investment in snippets is suffciently large. We further establish that commercial agreements are a promising alternative that strictly increases both the welfare of news publishers and the quality of their news. Our results suggest that the bargaining code is better used as an indirect threat to promote fair commercial negotiations, rather than used directly.

    Abstract: Over the last decades, media, IT and telecoms have been transitioning away from siloed markets dominated by legacy players. New entrants have been the engines of disruptive changes and the media sectors have witnessed new dynamics, opening up a phase of increased competition with competing business models. The context of convergence thus differs deeply from 20 years ago. The first section of the paper presents a picture of the European audio-visual markets, stressing its main features. It concentrates on the audiovisual service markets, describing its streams of revenue and structure. The second section tracks the way the European Commission has been dealing with the regulation of content over the last three decades. It sums up its main initiatives, goals and rationales. It shows how the European Commission has been catching up with technology with the progressive setting up of a two-pronged framework: sectoral (broadcasting-telecommunications) on the one hand, information society (e-commerce now digital services) framework on the other hand. The paper concludes with an assessment of the design and effectiveness of the policies, particularly DSA/DMA, and a view on the transition of the audiovisual markets. Based on a series of reports and research updated by desk research, the article reviews some of the existing literature, official publications and industry and consultancy data.

  4. By: Cécile Chanut-Guieu (LEST - Laboratoire d'économie et de sociologie du travail - AMU - Aix Marseille Université - CNRS - Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique)
    Abstract: This research aimed to investigate the relationship between how an organization monitors its external environment and defines its strategic orientation. These two constructs are assessed through the perception of professionals related to monitoring activities in their organizations. The approach chosen is quantitative, using the survey as research method. Data are analyzed by using descriptive statistics, non-parametric and multivariate analysis. The results indicate a relationship between external monitoring and strategic orientation: the formal search for information stood out more in analytical and prospector organizations and informal search, in reactive and defensive ones.

    Abstract: Nouveaux acteurs, nouveaux services, nouveaux modes de consommation, nouvelles formes de créativité: l'importance de l'innovation et de l'entrepreneuriat a redoublé et l'attention qu'y portent les sciences de gestion tout autant . La figure grandissante de l'entrepreneur culturel fait directement écho à cette montée en puissance de la figure de l'entrepreneur en général dans la société, portée par la vague des start-up associées aux nouvelles technologies. Pour autant, la question dépasse le simple effet de mode associé au poids grandissant du numérique. En matière d'art, les porteurs de projets ont existé de tous temps et l'attention qu'on porte à l'entrepreneuriat artistique et culturel en tant que tel s'est manifestée dès les années 80 en France, dans la foulée de l'impulsion financière donnée à l'époque par le ministère de la culture. Cette importance grandissante de l'entrepreneuriat tient-elle donc d'un engouement pour un phénomène préexistant sur lequel on met désormais un terme nouveau, ou d'un phénomène inédit que les chercheurs étudient et que l'Etat cherche à accompagner?

    Abstract: This research assesses the influence of hosting major international sporting competitions on the host countries' stock market performance before and after the announcement of such events. Specifically, this study explores whether stock markets of hosting countries experience cumulative average abnormal return (CAAR) during the aforementioned period. For the purposes of investigation, the study considers announcements of the 18th Asian Games and 30th SEA Games hosted by Indonesia and the Philippines, respectively. The LQ45 index of the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) and PSEi index of the Philippines Stock Exchange (PSE) were chosen to test the significance of these events. It is found that only PSE has experienced a significantly positive CAAR for the event. Findings of this study can make a significant contribution to helping national governments and investors understand the significance of sports to the economies of developing countries and how major sports events can improve stock market efficiency.
